CONWAY -- Rocky Armentrout walked into the Tiger Mart at 1626 Church St. in Conway with $17. Armentrout bought scratch-offs and won a few dollars. He kept exchanging his winnings for tickets to see how long his winning streak would hold. He then hit the jackpot by winning $100,000.
"It was a weird feeling," he said holding the $5 Cold Hard Cash winning ticket.
He told lottery officials he grabbed the clerk that sold him the tickets, and lifted him off the ground. Then he phoned his wife screaming he won the lottery.
"I feel like everything I've touched today has turned to gold," he said.
As of this release, one top prize of $100,000 remains in the $5 Cold Hard Cash game.
The odds of winning $100,000 are 1 in 600,000.
